With 8 weeks of training left until race day, I feel like I'm hitting my high mileage runs too soon. But really, 8 weeks is nothing when it comes to marathon training. I ran 19.5 miles (without falling!) today in the soupy heat and humidity. It was exhausting. I ran slow. I labored. But I did it. I spent time working on hills as well. My Garmin said that I climbed 652 feet of climb overall. Sounds like a lot. But definitely not enough to prepare for the San Francisco marathon. I will have to focus the next 8 weeks on hill training for both my short and long training runs.
Miles logged: 19.5
